Objective To explore the accuracy of artificial intelligence-based diagnosis of ovarian malignant tumors and the identification of benign and malignant tumors under transabdominal scanning and transvaginal scanning methods. Methods A dataset of transabdominal and transvaginal two-dimensional ultrasound images was used and the images were preprocessed to enhance quality. The region of interest was segmented and divided into a training set and a test set. A convolutional neural network (CNN) was trained on the images in the training set, and the accuracy of the model on the test set was calculated. Results Transvaginal scanning was 14% more accurate in diagnosing malignant ovarian tumors than transabdo-minal scanning on the test set. For identifying the benign and malignant ovarian tumors containing cystic components, a mixture of transvaginal and transabdominal scanning increased the accuracy by 9.7% over transabdominal scanning alone. Conclusion CNN can identify ovarian malignant tumors under both scanning methods, but the accuracy of transvaginal scanning is higher than that of transabdominal scanning, and the CNN model has a higher accuracy in identifying benign and malignant ovarian tumors under transvaginal scanning.

Objective Previous studies have shown that the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index reflects insulin resistance and predicts the risk of ischemic stroke. Massive cerebral infarction, as a type of ischemic stroke with poor prognosis, is often more prone to complications and sequelae. However, no studies have yet explored the relationship between the TyG index and massive cerebral infarction. This study aims to investigate the role of the TyG index in assessing the infarct area in ischemic stroke. Methods This retrospective study included 212 adult patients with ischemic stroke diagnosed by cranial magnetic resonance imaging and admitted to our hospital from January 2020 to June 2024. The patients were divided into massive cerebral infarction group and non-massive cerebral infarction group according to the study purpose. Univariable and multivariable logistic regression analyses were performed on each group using SPSS 26 software. The receiver operating characteristic curves were analyzed for the prediction models. Results Variables with P＜0.2 in the univariable logistic regression analysis were included in the multivariable logistic regression analysis. The results showed that age (OR 1.043, 95% CI 1.004-1.084, P＜0.05), National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score (OR 22.986, 95% CI 8.679-60.882, P＜0.001), and TyG index (OR 1.729, 95% CI 1.017-2.941, P＜0.05) were significant predictors. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the predictive model was 0.868 (P＜0.001), indicating high predictive performance. Conclusion The TyG index is an independent risk factor for massive cerebral infarction. The combination of the TyG index with clinical laboratory indicators can effectively predict massive cerebral infarction.

【Objective】 To investigate the development of adaptability in children aged 2 - 6, and to explore its influencing factors, so as to provide reference for promoting the development of adaptability in young children. 【Methods】 Data were from the National Nutrition and Health Systematic Survey for Children in China, and 3 319 children aged 2 - 6 and their parents from 28 sites across 14 provinces were recruited in this study.The Development Scale for Children Aged 0 - 6 years (WS/T 580-2017) was used to measure the developmental quotient of children′s adaptive ability, and a survey questionnaire was used to collect relevant information about children and their parents. 【Results】 Among 3 319 children aged 2 - 6, the proportion of slightly low or low level of adaptability, moderate adaptability development, good and excellent adaptability development was 7.68%,66.25% and 26.06%, respectively.The proportion of children aged 5 - 6 with good and excellent adaptability was lower in 3-year-old and 4-year-old groups (χ²=59.29, P<0.05).Multiple stepwise linear regression showed that children′s gender (β=0.06), gestational age of birth (β=-0.05), only child (β=-0.04), left-behind child (β=-0.04), the main caregiver (β=-0.06), and the education level of parents (β=0.09, 0.10), whether parents actively pay attention to children′s emotions (β=-0.06) and whether children play with homemade toys (β=-0.04) were the influencing factors of children′s adaptive development quotient.Girls, full-term children, only children, non-left-behind children, children with parents as main caregivers, parents with a high level of education, parents who often take the initiative to pay attention to children′s emotions, and children who play with homemade toys had a higher level of adaptability development quotient. 【Conclusions】 The development level of adaptability in children aged 2 - 6 in China is mostly above the average level and is related to multiple factors.Targeted intervention work can be carried out on relevant factors in order to promote the development of children′s adaptability.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and prognosis of children with chronic myeloid leukemia in the blast phase (CML-BP) .Methods:The clinical characteristics, treatment measures, and survival outcomes of 28 children with CML-BP were analyzed in our hospital from January 2008 to November 2022.Results:The male to female ratio of the 28 children with CML-BP was 1.15∶1. The median age of diagnosis of CML-BP was 10 years, and the median follow-up time was 79 months. During the diagnosis of CML, four children were in the BP, one was in the accelerated phase (AP) and 23 children were in the chronic phase (CP). Among the 23 children with CML-CP, 75% had progressed directly from CP to BP without experiencing the AP. Among the children diagnosed with CML-BP, 71.4% were classified as chronic myeloid leukemia lymphoid blast phase (CML-LBP), 25.0% belonged to the chronic myeloid leukemia myeloid blast phase (CML-MBP), and 3.6% belonged to the chronic myeloid leukemia mixed phenotype acute leukemia (CML-MPAL). Treatment with hemaopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) after tyosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) combined with chemotherapy was administered to 19 children, two children received HSCT after TKI alone, and seven children received TKI combined with chemotherapy but without HSCT. The 5-year overall survival of the 28 children with CML-BP was 59.3%.Conclusion:The direct progression of BP from CP is greater in children with CML-BP compared with adults, and the overall prognosis of children with CML-BP is poor.

Objective:To explore the predictive effect of European treatment and outcome study long term survival (ELTS) score on survival outcomes in chronic myeloid leukemia of chronic phase (CML-CP) children.Methods:A single-center retrospective cohort study was conducted. Clinical data of 216 children with CML-CP in Peking University People′s Hospital from January 2010 to December 2023 were analyzed. Children were divided into low, intermediate and high-risk groups according to ELTS score. The survival outcomes and prognostic factors were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method and Log-Rank test were used for survival analysis.Cox regression model was applied for analysis of prognostic factors.Results:Among the 216 children with CML-CP, there were 122 males and 94 females, with the diagnosis age of 11.0 (8.0, 14.7) years. The follow-up time was 77 (57, 99) months. According to ELTS score, 145, 52, and 19 children were classified as low, intermediate and high-risk group. For the low-risk and intermediate/high-risk groups, the 6-year failure-free survival (FFS) rates were (83.0±3.1)% and (64.6±5.7)%, the 6-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates were (91.4±2.3)% and (78.7±4.8)%, and the 6-year event-free survival (EFS) rates were (80.8±3.3)% and (64.2±5.7)%, with statistically significant difference ( χ2=9.45, 7.16, 7.40, P=0.002, 0.007, 0.007), respectively.The 6-year overall survival (OS) rates were (98.5±1.0)% and (95.6±2.4)%, without statistically significant difference ( χ2=0.35, P=0.550). Multivariate analysis showed that ELTS score was an independent prognostic factor or tendency for FFS ( HR=1.97, 95% CI 1.11-3.49), PFS ( HR=2.95, 95% CI 1.18-7.39), and no independent prognostic factor for EFS and OS were found. Conclusions:ELTS score at diagnosis can help stratify the risk of children with CML-CP. The children in intermediate/high-risk group are more likely to have treatment failure, disease progression than those in low-risk group, but the predictive ability of ELTS score for OS is limited.

Objective:To analyze the neurocognitive abnormalities and related emotional and behavioral problems in 410 adolescent patients with Turner syndrome (TS) managed in Henan Children′s Hospital in the past 5 years, and to explore the relationship between neurocognitive abnormalities and chromosome karyotype, pubertal development, hormone replacement therapy.Methods:A retrospective case series study.A total of 410 adolescent patients who were diagnosed with TS by karyotype or fluorescence in situ hybridization in the outpatient or inpatient Department of Endocrinology, Genetics and Metabolism at Henan Children′s Hospital from June 2018 to June 2023 were selected and divided into 2 groups according to age: < 12 years old and 12-18 years old.Neurocognitive assessments were performed based on the results of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale (4 th edition) for children and behavior scales for children, SPSS 22.0 software was used for data processing and statistical analysis, and chi-square test was used to analyze the correlation between chromosome karyotype, intelligence development level, pubertal development status, hormone therapy status and the occurrence of neuropsychiatric diseases. Results:Among the 410 TS patients, 207 cases had the karyotype of 45, X0/46, XX, accounting for 50.49%, 94 cases had the monosomic karyotype of 45, X0, accounting for 22.93%.Forty-six patients completed the Wechsler intelligence test, with the intelligence quotient (IQ) score ranging from 70 to 105, with high verbal comprehension and perceptual reasoning scores and low processing speed and working memory scores on all assessments.Fifty-two patients completed the hyperactivity scale assessment, and 43 cases had a predisposition to attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).There were no significant differences in total IQ, perceptual reasoning and processing speed among the children with karyotype 45, X0, chimeric, and X chromosome structural abnormalities ( H=3.161, 1.955, 5.890, all P>0.05), while there were significant differences in verbal comprehension and working memory among the three groups ( H=7.697, 9.694, all P<0.05).Among TS patients 12-18 years old, 68 cases completed the depression scale self-assessment, of which 23 cases had depressive tendencies.There was no correlation between depressive tendency and chromosome karyotype, pubertal development and hormone replacement therapy ( P>0.05). Conclusions:TS patients generally have low intelligence levels and tend to have ADHD in childhood.TS patients in the pubertal development have a high incidence of depression.Pubertal development status and hormone replacement therapy show no correlation with the occurrence of neuropsychiatric diseases in TS patients.

Objective:To investigate the value of the combined ultrasound imaging radiomics model for predicting progression-free survival in endocrine therapy for prostate cancer.Methods:A total of 283 prostate cancer patients who received endocrine treatment at the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region People′s Hospital and the First Hospital of Hohhot from July 2018 to January 2023 were retrospectively collected, of which 198 patients from the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region People′s Hospital were randomly divided into the training set and the validation set according to the ratio of 7∶3, and 85 patients from the First Hospital of Hohhot served as an independent external test set. They were classified into a progression group and a non-progression group based on whether the patients progressed to desmoplasia-resistant prostate cancer 18 months after the start of endocrine treatment.Based on the two-dimensional ultrasound images, the imaging radiomics features were extracted and the imaging radiomics score (Rad-score) were constructed, the immunopathology and other clinical data were analysed, and three prediction models were constructed using logistic regression: the clinical model, the ultrasonography model, and the ultrasonography-clinical combined model, respectively. The predictive efficacy and clinical utility of the models were assessed by the ROC curves and clinical decision curves.Results:Five ultrasonographic features were included in the ultrasound model; the prostate-specific antigen nadir, the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio before treatment, and the expression level of tumour proliferating cell nuclear antigen 67 (Ki-67) were incorporated into the clinical model; and the Rad score computed from the output of the ultrasound model for the screening features, together with the prostate-specific antigen nadir (PSA nadir), the neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) before treatment, and the expression level of Ki-67 were used to construct the ultrasound-clinical joint model. The joint model achieved the highest predictive performance in both the training and validation sets of the three groups of models, with the area under the curve of 0.85 and 0.84, and the clinical decision curve showed good clinical benefit.Conclusions:The combined ultrasound-clinical model constructed in this study based on two-dimensional ultrasound images of prostate cancer before endocrine therapy can predict progression-free survival of endocrine therapy for prostate cancer more accurately.

Objective:To analyze the vaccination recommendations and follow-up for children with special health status.Methods:In this retrospective cohort study, 509 children who attended the Consultation Clinic of Vaccination for Special Health Children in Beijing Children′s Hospital from August 2020 to February 2023 were selected, the children were given vaccination planning advice after the assessment. The clinical data were collected, including the general situation, special health conditions, vaccination recommendations and implementation status, occurrence and outcomes of suspected adverse events following immunization (AEFI) after vaccination. The vaccination situation and safety in these children were evaluated.Results:Among the 509 children, the most common special health conditions were cardiovascular system diseases (103 cases), followed by neurological diseases (88 cases) and neonatal problems (82 cases). After comprehensive evaluation and multidisciplinary collaboration, 399 children (78.4%) were recommended to receive vaccination/catch-up vaccination according to the immunization program, 63 children (12.4%) were recommended to receive some vaccines but temporarily suspend others, and 47 children (9.2%) were recommended to temporarily suspend vaccination. A total of 449 children (88.2%) were actually vaccinated, AEFI occurred in 49 children and 45 cases were considered as general reactions.Conclusions:The majority of children with special health status can be vaccinated, and the overall compliance and safety are high. The individualized immunization evaluation model of multidisciplinary collaboration is conducive to the completion of the immunization program of children with special health status.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.
